Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a photopolymer formulation comprising matrix polymers, a writing monomer and a photoinitiator.
  • the invention further relates to a photopolymer comprising matrix polymers, a writing monomer and a photoinitiator, a holographic medium which contains a photopolymer according to the invention, the use of a holographic medium according to the invention and a process for producing a holographic medium using a photopolymer formulation according to the invention.
  • Photopolymer formulations of the type mentioned at the outset are known in the prior art.
  • WO 2008/125229 A1 describes a photopolymer formulation and a photopolymer obtainable therefrom which comprise polyurethane matrix polymers, an acrylate-based writing monomer and photoinitiators containing a coinitiator and a dye.
  • the refractive index modulation ⁇ n produced by the holographic exposure plays a decisive role.
  • the interference field consisting of the signal and reference light beam (in the simplest case that of two plane waves) is imaged in a refractive index grating by the local photopolymerization of writing monomers such as highly refractive acrylates at locations of high intensity in the interference field.
  • the refractive index grating in the photopolymer contains all the information of the signal light beam.
  • the signal can then be reconstructed by illuminating the hologram only with the reference light beam.
  • the strength of the signal reconstructed in this way in relation to the strength of the incident reference light is called diffraction efficiency, hereinafter referred to as DE as diffraction efficiency.
  • the DE results from the quotient of the intensity of the light refracted during the reconstruction and the sum of the intensities from undeflected and refracted light.
  • the matrix polymers and the writing monomers of a photopolymer formulation should in principle be selected so that their refractive indices differ as much as possible.
  • One way of realizing this is to use matrix polymers with the lowest possible refractive index and writing monomers with the highest possible refractive index.
  • Suitable matrix polymers with a low refractive index are, for example, polyurethanes obtainable by reacting a polyol with a polyisocyanate component.
  • the matrix polymers are highly cross-linked in the finished medium. If the degree of crosslinking is too low, the medium is not sufficiently stable. This can result in the quality of holograms written in the media being considerably reduced. In the worst case, the holograms can even be destroyed afterwards.
  • holographic exposure with a continuous laser source reaches technical limits with large-area exposure, since a certain light dose per unit area must always be irradiated in order to ensure efficient formation of the hologram and the technically available laser power is limited.
  • large exposures with a comparatively low dose require long exposure times, which in turn place very high demands on the mechanical vibration damping of the exposure structure.
  • Typical pulse durations for pulsed lasers are 500 ns or shorter.
  • Typical pulse durations for continuous wave lasers with very fast shutters are 100 ⁇ s or shorter.
  • the same dose of energy can be irradiated as with continuous lasers in seconds. In this way, holograms can be written point by point. Since pulsed lasers or fast optical shutters are technically available and such an exposure structure has very low requirements with regard to mechanical vibration damping, it is a good technical alternative to the structures described above with continuous lasers for large-area exposure of holograms.
  • the object of the present invention was therefore to provide a photopolymer formulation which can be used to produce photopolymers in which holograms can be written using pulsed lasers due to their higher sensitivity to light.
  • media which are produced from a photopolymer formulation according to the invention have a higher sensitivity to light and are therefore well suited for exposure to pulsed lasers.

Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Photopolymer-Formulierung umfassend Matrixpolymere, ein Schreibmonomer und einen Photoinitiator. Weitere Gegenstände der Erfindung sind ein Photopolymer umfassend Matrixpolymere, ein Schreibmonomer und einen Photoinitiator, ein holographisches Medium, das ein erfindungsgemäßes Photopolymer enthält, die Verwendung eines erfindungsgemäßen holographischen Mediums sowie ein Verfahren zur Herstellung eines holographischen Mediums unter Verwendung einer erfindungsgemäßen Photopolymer-Formulierung.The present invention relates to a photopolymer formulation comprising matrix polymers, a writing monomer and a photoinitiator. The invention further relates to a photopolymer comprising matrix polymers, a writing monomer and a photoinitiator, a holographic medium which contains a photopolymer according to the invention, the use of a holographic medium according to the invention and a process for producing a holographic medium using a photopolymer formulation according to the invention.

Photopolymer-Formulierungen der eingangs genannten Art sind im Stand der Technik bekannt. So sind beispielsweise in der WO 2008/125229 A1 eine Photopolymer-Formulierung und ein daraus erhältliches Photopolymer beschrieben, die Polyurethanmatrixpolymere, ein Schreibmonomer auf Acrylatbasis sowie Photoinitiatoren enthaltend einen Coinitiator und einen Farbstoff umfassen. Bei der Verwendungen von Photopolymeren spielt die durch die holographische Belichtung erzeugte Brechungsindexmodulation Δn die entscheidende Rolle. Bei der holographischen Belichtung wird das Interferenzfeld aus Signal- und Referenzlichtstrahl (im einfachsten Fall das zweier ebener Wellen) durch die lokale Photopolymerisation von Schreibmonomeren wie z.B. hochbrechenden Acrylate an Orten hoher Intensität im Interferenzfeld in ein Brechungsindexgitter abgebildet. Das Brechungsindexgitter im Photopolymer (das Hologramm) enthält alle Information des Signallichtstrahls. Durch Beleuchtung des Hologramms nur mit dem Referenzlichtstrahl kann dann das Signal wieder rekonstruiert werden. Die Stärke des so rekonstruierten Signals im Verhältnis zur Stärke des eingestrahlten Referenzlichts wird Beugungseffizienz, im Folgenden DE wie Diffraction Efficiency, genannt.Photopolymer formulations of the type mentioned at the outset are known in the prior art. For example, in the WO 2008/125229 A1 describes a photopolymer formulation and a photopolymer obtainable therefrom which comprise polyurethane matrix polymers, an acrylate-based writing monomer and photoinitiators containing a coinitiator and a dye. When using photopolymers, the refractive index modulation Δn produced by the holographic exposure plays a decisive role. In holographic exposure, the interference field consisting of the signal and reference light beam (in the simplest case that of two plane waves) is imaged in a refractive index grating by the local photopolymerization of writing monomers such as highly refractive acrylates at locations of high intensity in the interference field. The refractive index grating in the photopolymer (the hologram) contains all the information of the signal light beam. The signal can then be reconstructed by illuminating the hologram only with the reference light beam. The strength of the signal reconstructed in this way in relation to the strength of the incident reference light is called diffraction efficiency, hereinafter referred to as DE as diffraction efficiency.

Im einfachsten Fall eines Hologramms, das aus der Überlagerung zweier ebener Wellen entsteht, ergibt sich die DE aus dem Quotienten der Intensität des bei der Rekonstruktion abgebeugten Lichtes und der Summe der Intensitäten aus nicht gebeugten und abgebeugtem Licht. Je höher die DE desto effizienter ist ein Hologramm in Bezug auf die Lichtmenge des Referenzlichtes die notwendig ist, um das Signal mit einer festen Helligkeit sichtbar zu machen.In the simplest case of a hologram that arises from the superimposition of two plane waves, the DE results from the quotient of the intensity of the light refracted during the reconstruction and the sum of the intensities from undeflected and refracted light. The higher the DE, the more efficient a hologram is in relation to the amount of light of the reference light that is necessary to make the signal visible with a fixed brightness.

Um ein möglichst hohes Δn und eine möglichst hohe DE bei Hologrammen realisieren zu können, sollten grundsätzlich die Matrixpolymere und die Schreibmonomere einer Photopolymer-Formulierung so gewählt werden, dass sie sich in ihren Brechungsindizes möglichst stark unterscheiden. Ein Möglichkeit zur Realisierung ist, Matrixpolymere mit einem möglichst niedrigen und Schreibmonomere mit einem möglichst hohen Brechungsindex zu verwenden. Geeignete Matrixpolymere mit niedrigem Brechungsindex sind beispielsweise durch Umsetzung einer Polyol- mit einer Polyisocyanat-Komponente erhältliche Polyurethane.In order to be able to achieve the highest possible Δn and the highest possible DE for holograms, the matrix polymers and the writing monomers of a photopolymer formulation should in principle be selected so that their refractive indices differ as much as possible. One way of realizing this is to use matrix polymers with the lowest possible refractive index and writing monomers with the highest possible refractive index. Suitable matrix polymers with a low refractive index are, for example, polyurethanes obtainable by reacting a polyol with a polyisocyanate component.

Neben hohen DE- und Δn- Werten ist es für holographische Medien aus Photopolymer-Formulierungen aber auch von großer Bedeutung, dass die Matrixpolymere im fertigen Medium hoch vernetzt sind. Falls der Vernetzungsgrad zu niedrig ist, weist das Medium keine ausreichende Stabilität auf. Dies kann dazu führen, dass die Qualität von in die Medien eingeschriebenen Hologrammen erheblich vermindert ist. Im schlimmsten Fall können die Hologramme sogar nachträglich zerstört werden.In addition to high DE and Δn values, it is also very important for holographic media made from photopolymer formulations that the matrix polymers are highly cross-linked in the finished medium. If the degree of crosslinking is too low, the medium is not sufficiently stable. This can result in the quality of holograms written in the media being considerably reduced. In the worst case, the holograms can even be destroyed afterwards.

Weiterhin ist es insbesondere für den großtechnischen Einsatz von holographischen Medien aus Photopolymer-Formulierungen von großer Bedeutung, dass die Lichtempfindlichkeit ausreicht, um bei einer gegebenen Laser-Lichtquelle großflächig und ohne Verlust an Indexmodulation belichten zu können. Hier ist insbesondere die Wahl eines geeigneten Photoinitiators von entscheidender Bedeutung für die Eigenschaften des Photopolymers.Furthermore, it is of great importance, in particular for the large-scale use of holographic media made from photopolymer formulations, that the light sensitivity is sufficient to be able to expose a large area of a given laser light source without loss of index modulation. Here, the choice of a suitable photoinitiator is of crucial importance for the properties of the photopolymer.

Die holographische Belichtung mit einer kontinuierlichen Laserquelle stößt jedoch bei großflächiger Belichtung an technische Grenzen, da immer eine gewisse Lichtdosis pro Flächeneinheit eingestrahlt werden muss, um eine effiziente Bildung des Hologramms zu gewährleisten und die technisch verfügbare Laserleistung begrenzt ist. Zudem erfordern großflächige Belichtungen bei vergleichsweise geringer Dosis lange Belichtungszeiten, die wiederum sehr hohe Anforderungen an die mechanische Schwingungsdämpfung des Belichtungsaufbaus stellen.However, holographic exposure with a continuous laser source reaches technical limits with large-area exposure, since a certain light dose per unit area must always be irradiated in order to ensure efficient formation of the hologram and the technically available laser power is limited. In addition, large exposures with a comparatively low dose require long exposure times, which in turn place very high demands on the mechanical vibration damping of the exposure structure.

Eine weitere Möglichkeit zur großflächigen Belichtung von Hologrammen besteht in der Verwendung von sehr kurzen Lichtpulsen, wie sie z.B. von gepulsten Lasern oder Dauerstrichlasern in Verbindung mit sehr schnellen Shuttern erzeugt werden. Typische Pulsdauern bei gepulsten Lasern sind 500 ns oder kürzer. Typische Pulsdauern bei Dauerstrichlasern mit sehr schnellen Shuttern sind 100 µs oder kürzer. Dabei kann die gleiche Energiedosis eingestrahlt werden wie mit kontinuierlichen Lasern in Sekunden. Auf diese Art können Hologramme Punkt für Punkt geschrieben werden. Da gepulste Laser oder schnelle optische Shutter technisch verfügbar sind und ein derartiger Belichtungsaufbau sehr geringe Anforderungen mit Hinblick auf die mechanische Schwingungsdämpfung hat, handelt es sich um eine gute technisch Alternative zu den oben beschriebenen Aufbauten mit kontinuierlichen Lasern zur großflächigen Belichtung von Hologrammen.Another possibility for exposing holograms over a large area is to use very short light pulses, such as those e.g. of pulsed lasers or continuous wave lasers in connection with very fast shutters. Typical pulse durations for pulsed lasers are 500 ns or shorter. Typical pulse durations for continuous wave lasers with very fast shutters are 100 µs or shorter. The same dose of energy can be irradiated as with continuous lasers in seconds. In this way, holograms can be written point by point. Since pulsed lasers or fast optical shutters are technically available and such an exposure structure has very low requirements with regard to mechanical vibration damping, it is a good technical alternative to the structures described above with continuous lasers for large-area exposure of holograms.

Die aus der WO 2008/125229 A1 bekannten Photopolymere weisen auf Grund der dort verwendeten Photoinitiatoren eine zu geringe Lichtempfindlichkeit auf, um sie beim Schreiben von Hologrammen mit gepulsten Lasern verwenden zu können. Weitere Photopolymer-Formulierungen die Matrixpolymere, Schreibmonomere und Photoinitiatoren enthalten sind aus der WO 2013/053771 A und der WO 2011/095442 A1 bekannt.The one from the WO 2008/125229 A1 Known photopolymers have, due to the photoinitiators used there, too little light sensitivity to be able to use them when writing holograms with pulsed lasers. Further photopolymer formulations containing matrix polymers, writing monomers and photoinitiators are from the WO 2013/053771 A and the WO 2011/095442 A1 known.

Die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung bestand daher darin, eine Photopolymer-Formulierung bereit zu stellen, mit deren Hilfe sich Photopolymere herstellen lassen, in die auf Grund ihrer höheren Lichtempfindlichkeit mit gepulsten Lasern Hologramme geschrieben werden können.The object of the present invention was therefore to provide a photopolymer formulation which can be used to produce photopolymers in which holograms can be written using pulsed lasers due to their higher sensitivity to light.

Diese Aufgabe ist durch eine Photopolymer-Formulierung umfassend Matrixpolymere, ein Schreibmonomer und einen Photoinitiator gelöst, die zusätzlich eine Verbindung der Formel (I) umfasst

Dieser setzt durch Elektronen- oder Protonentransfer oder direkte Wasserstoffabstraktion die polymerisationsauslösenden Radikale frei.Type II photoinitiators (Norrish type II) for radical polymerization consist of a dye as a sensitizer and a coinitiator and undergo a bimolecular reaction when irradiated with light adapted to the dye. First, the dye absorbs a photon and transfers energy to the coinitiator from an excited state. This releases the radicals that trigger polymerization by electron or proton transfer or direct hydrogen abstraction.

Im Sinne dieser Erfindung werden bevorzugt Typ II-Photoinitiatoren verwendet.For the purposes of this invention, type II photoinitiators are preferably used.

Bestimmung der Beugungseffizienz bei Puls-Belichtung:Determination of the diffraction efficiency with pulse exposure:

Zur Bestimmung der Beugungseffizienz bei Puls-Belichtung wurde das Denisyuk Hologramm eines Spiegels in eine Probe, bestehend aus einer Glasplatte mit auflaminiertem Photopolymerfilm, aufgezeichnet. Das Substrat des Photopolymerfilms zeigte dabei zur Laserquelle und das Glassubstrat zum Spiegel. Die Probe war bei der Belichtung mit ihrer Planfläche senkrecht zum Laserstrahl ausgerichtet. Der Abstand Probe zum Spiegel betrug 3 cm.To determine the diffraction efficiency with pulse exposure, the Denisyuk hologram of a mirror was recorded in a sample consisting of a glass plate with a laminated photopolymer film. The substrate of the photopolymer film pointed to the laser source and the glass substrate to the mirror. When exposed, the sample was aligned with its flat surface perpendicular to the laser beam. The distance between sample and mirror was 3 cm.

Als Laser wurde ein Puls-Laser der Firma Quantel aus Frankreich, Modell Brilliant b, verwendet. Es handelte sich dabei um einen Q-switched Nd-YAG Laser mit einem Modul zur Frequenzverdopplung zu 532 nm. Der Single Frequency Mode wurde durch einen Seed Laser garantiert. Die rechnerische Kohärenzlänge betrug ca. 1 m. Die Pulsdauer 4 ns und die mittlere Ausgangsleistung 3 Watt bei einer Pulswiederholungsrate von 10 Hz.A pulse laser from the French company Quantel, model Brilliant b, was used as the laser. It was a Q-switched Nd-YAG laser with a module for frequency doubling to 532 nm. The single frequency mode was guaranteed by a seed laser. The calculated coherence length was approx. 1 m. The pulse duration 4 ns and the average output power 3 watts with a pulse repetition rate of 10 Hz.

Mit dem elektronisch geregelten Shutter wurde eine Einfachpulsbelichtung sichergestellt. Die Wellenplatte erlaubte die Rotation der Polarisationsebene des Laserlichts und mit dem darauffolgenden Polarisator wurde der S-polarisierte Anteil des Laserlichtes in Richtung der Probe reflektiert. Die Strahlaufweitung erlaubte die Einstellung der belichteten Fläche. Die Wellenplatte und die Strahlaufweitung wurden so eingestellt, dass die Probe eine Belichtungsdosis von 100 mJ/cm2/Puls erreichte.Single pulse exposure was ensured with the electronically controlled shutter. The wave plate allowed the rotation of the plane of polarization of the laser light and with the following polarizer the S-polarized portion of the laser light was reflected in the direction of the sample. The beam expansion allowed the setting of the exposed area. The wave plate and beam expansion were adjusted so that the sample reached an exposure dose of 100 mJ / cm 2 / pulse.

Zur Bestimmung der Beugungseffizienz wurden die Proben jeweils genau mit einem Puls belichtet. Nach der Belichtung wurde die Probe auf einem Leuchttisch geblichen.To determine the diffraction efficiency, the samples were each exposed precisely with a pulse. After exposure, the sample was bleached on a light table.

Durch das Hologramm der geblichenen Probe wurde ein Transmissionsspektrum gemessen. Es wurde ein Spektrometer der Firma Ocean Optics, Modell HR4000 verwendet. Die Probe wurde senkrecht zum Lichtstrahl gestellt. Das Transmissionsspektrum zeigte bei der Wellenlänge, bei der die Bragg-Bedingung erfüllt war, einen Einbruch der Transmission. Die Tiefe des Transmissionseinbruchs zur Basislinie wurde als Beugungseffizienz DE des Denisyuk Hologramms des Spiegels ausgewertet.A transmission spectrum was measured through the hologram of the bleached sample. A spectrometer from the company Ocean Optics, model HR4000 was used. The sample was placed perpendicular to the light beam. The transmission spectrum showed a drop in transmission at the wavelength at which the Bragg condition was met. The depth of the transmission dip to the baseline was evaluated as the diffraction efficiency DE of the Denisyuk hologram of the mirror.
